As part of a special feature about Don Figueroa on their site, they have opened a competition where you can win a hand drawn version of a WW redesign made by Don Figueroa as well as a Galaxy Force/Cybertron Starscream figure when it comes out.

All you have to do is create a War Within type design for any existing non-G1 Transformer character. Entrees are accepted as Kitbash, 2D art or 3D art. The winner will be picked by the Don himself. For all the details go here.

Devil's Due has presented us with another 5 page preview to the next issue of GI Joe vs Transformers II. You may note the the preview pages also present us with old favorite Scouge and his sweeps in this dark view of the future.

Even as their fragile alliance begins to fray, the Joes and Cobra are sent into Earth's
future to retrieve the displaced Ratchet-and are given a terrible glimpse of what
humanity's fate could be. For in this possible future, the planet has been conquered
by Shockwave and the Decepticons. It is a world in which massive Transformer city
complexes roam the planet in robot form â€¦ where man has been all but wiped
outâ€¦and the only resistance faced by the thinking machines are the freedom
fighters called the Dreadnoks!
